I can't stress this enough: It is inappropriate to burden small children with the woes of the world. It serves adult needs. No child "needs" to know this stuff. Even kids living in war-torn nations don't BENEFIT from the details of why the people are fighting. What they need to know is the adults in their lives are handling it as best they can, and trying to keep them safe.
Safety and security is BIG for kids. Children with attachment issues grow up to be adults with attachment issues, and adults with attachment issues (translation: DEEP insecurity) are who we are dealing with right now. They are unhealthy, and at their worst, abusive.
More on attachment, and age-appropriate content in the comments soon...
If you missed the live, and are trying to decide whether to watch the show with Ray Raymond, here's a sample that I hope helps you decide!
Greetings! I wanted to make a plug for the new show Kieran White and I are doing each week on his YT channel! Here's this week's. Each week we cover three or four stories from the news, and ask the question: "Is that true?"
In this week's episode:
Neuralink: Is it turning us into cyborgs?
Deb: Am I really a racist?
Taylor Swift: Is she a DNC Op?
Watch here! Please subscribe and watch live, Wednesday at 2:00 PM Eastern.
